Symbolism is part puzzle, part strategy and is based on a game I used to play all the time on my Palm, Alchemy. This game is a total classic in my mobile gaming stable. It¢s challenging as heck and you could find yourself playing it for hours on end!



The game board consists of a grid. You are given squares that you must place on the grid. The squares have a colored symbol on them and have a gold background. Now, you can¢t just flop down squares anywhere you want to, you have to place them according to symbol and color. For example, if you have a red M, you can place another red symbol next to it or a different colored M. There is a block in the middle of the board when you start, that¢s basically a wild that you can place any square next to. There are empty gold squares that can be placed on an already gold square. This can help you place other squares when you are stuck. When a row or column is filled with squares, it clears the symbols, but the gold squares stay. To win the level you must cover the grid with gold squares.



What¢s great about this game: There are three levels of difficulty; Easy, Medium and Hard. There are two different scoreboards, Online global scores and in game personal scores. There are also clearly written instructions that will help you learn how to play. The game has great sound effects, which are nicely done. You also have the ability to play your own music from your iPod collection. The graphics are highly polished and I had no problems with it crashing or game play bugs.

What I¢d like to see added: Background music would be really nice.



my number #1 addiction lately !

Part puzzle and part strategy game, Symbolism is a unique offering that challenges gamers to think both methodically and critically in order to rack up high scores.

The premise of the game is somewhat simple. Each square has a symbol and a color and can only be placed next to squares that have either the same color or symbol. Once an entire row or column has been filled, it is cleared. Once every square on the board has been marked at least once (signified by a yellow background), the level is over.

Sound easy? Sure, at first it will be a piece of cake, but with each passing level comes more and more color and shape combinations. Do you have what it takes to be Symbolism master? There is only one way to find out...
